Don't people care any longer? I find it may be one of the smaller but
still a really nice gallery.

Ralf  and all... I made a comment that didnt bounce back to me and it
looks like I had hit reply instead of reply all so int only went to Brian
This is what I wrote 2 days ago ..

a  very pleasing group.. but I notice the scarcity of submissions  -
guess I'm not the only one not into doing still lifes 🙂
I thought of submitting one of my ebay images but that didn't seem
right.  also considered a photo ofone of my Mom's
paintings that are still lifes.. couldn't get into it.  Other stuff on
my mind.

I thought it was a fine (Small!) gallery. Like Ann, I had some issues trying to relate to the theme, and I went a bit outside the bounds with my own contribution. Looking at the contributions of others, I was reminded of images I do have with a similar theme, but Still Life is just not embedded in my vocabulary and I hadn’t considered those earlier. So I was very pleased to see how others had interpreted the theme. I always learn something from the way others See through their lens.

I care, but seldom have anything I think is good enough to submit.

I do have a couple of abstracts, but unfortunately taken with the wrong
camera (Canon Point 'n Shoot)

Same here. I had to search long and hard and this gallery now contains
50% of my still life photography.

I dunno, most of the factories, powerplants, and many of the ships you photograph tend to be pretty still.

Your submission fits the literal meaning of still life. :-)

I always look but seldom comment. I find it interesting to see how others interpret the theme. I always enjoy those that push the interpretation. I think of Alan's Panorama a while ago. I did try to think of something for this months on the lines of the question "Is there still life in this?" I did enjoy Rick's picture of the desk. I brought back memories of a similar one that my mother had.
